https://youtu.be/ZrGNZsig0qM Another way to get up the tree. I use my pantin like spurs. It's nice to redirect the lines as I go alternating between one and another

I do drop my other line quite often when it makes sense. I find it is easier to go from drt to srt when it makes sense rather than visa versa

Nothing about the runner that is really unique. It's bassically just a different friction hitch. One that works really well IMO but offers nothing that a wrench or a HH or a uni doesn't offer. Just another tool to go up and down a rope. I have been back on wrenches lately and been really...

I tried with one bridge, like sean said you want each rope to be able to travel full distance across your bridge without interference. The swivels allow you to simply pass the rope around your body to get straightened out. I tried it with one bridge and no swivels and found it to not be even...

Yes that's right, if you only have one bridge and two tie in points you'll get completely twisted up. The swivels allow you to keep it all organized without going crazy

Yes that is where the additional time comes in. Managing two ropes during the climb has not proven to add much effort or time.

An extra bridge and swivel is minimum gear addition to harness

Imagine tying one base tie one place and the other a slightly different place. Mediating the base tie cuttin hazard. My options in the tree are always better no matter how small the job.

Yeah bassically. It's really not much more difficult to manage two than one. I can do I all one handed. The hitches on the wrench run great. Imagine working a lead over a house. You redirect one line and that allows you to work the tip and then you have the other one at the original...

It's not just safer although it is. It has advantages on its own that every time I have climbed srt recently I have missed.

The best thing about it is never having to take your weight off your line. Maintaining no slack at all times

Alternating redirects like in twin rope lead climbing in rock climbing

If one thing years of tree work have taught me is that it's not the sketchy burly tree that Will get you, it's likely the 200$ 30 footer on Friday that will get you.

I usually use the same crotch. I pull it all up at one time when possible. Your right that I am climbing with two ropes because I am lazy. That's been a theme for me in life. Always looking for the easy way. If your working hard your doing something wrong.

I have some thoughts on making a drt video. I attended the PNW isa conference over the weekend and another climber who had attended a SPRAT training was there and he presented. He was also brainwashed and had come to many of the same conclusuons as me.

So I have been rocking two lines since a weeklong SPRAT claas I took back in march. Haven't looked back. It's only a partial measure of efficiency and productivity but last weekend I competed in the michigan comp and I stayed tied in twice to two separate ropes and systems for the work climb...

I thought I was getting out there with one rope. I climbed with a single rope for a long time but have using two ropes for the last six months and my ability to get out there to the tippy tippy tips has been so much fun.
